TV Viking: “Battle Crow”

Tracks
Written By Michael Gutierrez

Live at the Bomber. Where’s the Bomber? Oh, right. It’s an all-ages venue in Portland, Oregon. TV Viking memorialized a 2024 gig with a live three-song EP. Our highlighted track “Battle Crow” is a psych rock romp with plenty of syrupy reverb and tempo change pomp. Shades of the house band at Warhol’s Factory. This EP is the only selection on Bandcamp. You can find a couple more tracks on Spotify, but Spotify sucks, so don’t use it. Off Live at the Bomber 6/30/24.

Stream, share, buy to your heart’s content.
